Under 2.4.25, it works fine with "vga=791" in my lilo.conf file. Here's what's in the log: Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: vesafb: framebuffer at 0xf0000000, mapped to 0xe080d000, size 3072k Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: vesafb: mode is 1024x768x16, linelength=2048, pages=0 Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: vesafb: protected mode interface info at c000:c590 Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: vesafb: scrolling: redraw Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: vesafb: directcolor: size=0:5:6:5, shift=0:11:5:0 Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48 Apr 22 17:19:09 gateway kernel: fb0: VESA VGA frame buffer device Under 2.6.5: Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: rivafb: nVidia device/chipset 10DE0110 Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: rivafb: Detected CRTC controller 0 being used Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: rivafb: RIVA MTRR set to ON Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: rivafb: PCI nVidia NV10 framebuffer ver 0.9.5b (nVidiaGeForce2-M, 32MB @ 0xF0000000) Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: vga16fb: initializing Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: vga16fb: mapped to 0xc00a0000 Apr 22 17:57:58 gateway kernel: fb1: VGA16 VGA frame buffer device Totally different output and no references to vesafb. With "vga=791" on bootup the screen goes blank then switches to the normal graphics mode. Even when I use "vga=ask" and I put in a valid number, the screen switches to text mode momentarily then goes back to the normal graphics mode.
